The voice of the Stone of Destiny rang out in w.a.n.g Chong’s mind.

Rumble! Between w.a.n.g Chong and An Lushan, the snowstorm swiftly dissipated. w.a.n.g Chong could once more see An Lushan’s alliance army and its constantly advancing ranks.

Buzz!

As he saw the snowstorm dissipate and once more saw w.a.n.g Chong on the wall, An Lushan felt his breathing almost come to a stop.

Behind An Lushan, the excited soldiers of the alliance army were rendered speechless.

“How could this be?!”

But still, An Lushan was the most stunned of all.

He was the Child of the World, an existence chosen by the heavens who could control the world!

How could w.a.n.g Chong contend against him?

“This can’t be!”

In a flash, An Lushan came back to his senses and gnashed his teeth. He did not believe that w.a.n.g Chong could actually resist him.

“There’s no way you can oppose my Power of the World! Again!”

An Lushan savagely extended his hand into the air and once more increased his control over the Power of the World.

Thunder rumbled once more, but this time, the thunder was even louder, and the vortex of clouds in the air grew even more turbulent.

Crackcrack! As lightning raged in the skies, giant flakes of snow once more began to drop from the clouds, and the temperature once more plunged to frightening levels.

“Not enough! Still not enough! w.a.n.g Chong, I’m going to turn you and your steel fortress into blocks of ice!”

As the snowstorm rapidly expanded and intensified, An Lushan hatefully glared and increased his control over the Power of the World.

The Power of the World so thickly encompa.s.sed the region that it became almost tangible. Even the alliance soldiers could sense this mysterious existence, and it made them vaguely uneasy.

Whoos.h.!.+

As he saw the steel fortress enveloped in an even greater blizzard, w.a.n.g Chong’s eyes flashed with disdain.

“An Lushan, it doesn’t matter what you do. Your abilities aren’t even worth mentioning in front of me.”

w.a.n.g Chong spoke with contempt and derision.

Without hesitation, w.a.n.g Chong increased the power of the Myriad Forms Celestial Mantra, the consumption going from ten points to fifteen points. Although it was an additional five points every second, considering the discount from the Archon of Destiny’s abilities, the Myriad Forms Celestial Mantra’s cost had increased by fifty points of Destiny Energy.

Boom!

Just as the blizzard was once more about to sweep over the steel fortress, boom! Several dozen feet from the walls, the blizzard blew apart as if it had run into an invisible wall.

This energy rapidly spread from the walls across the entire battlefield, the entire northeast. Boom! Bang! In a series of deafening impacts, the snowstorm that An Lushan had created using the Power of the World was obliterated.

The weather over the battlefield turned clear once more.

“！！！”

“!!!”

All of the alliance soldiers and generals were stunned by this sight. Yeon Gaesomun, Ozmish Khagan, the Khitan King, and the Xi Queen glanced at each other and frowned.

Although they didn’t know the exact details, they could tell that this situation was extremely bad for An Lushan.

Meanwhile, An Lushan’s face had turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

He had just fused with the black dragon, and now should have been the perfect time to flaunt his strength. But he had never imagined that he would be at a disadvantage in this battle, his ability to control the weather of no use against w.a.n.g Chong.

He had never expected that w.a.n.g Chong would be able to grow so strong that he could deal with the World Consciousness.

And from the relaxed look on w.a.n.g Chong’s face, it was clear that he was not exerting himself fully to deal with the weather.

“d.a.m.n it!”

An Lushan’s anger was indescribable.

Roooar!

Far above in the clouds, the golden eyes formed from the Power of the World sensed An Lushan’s anger. They stared at w.a.n.g Chong and unleashed a threatening roar.

w.a.n.g Chong instantly felt an invisible energy squeezing at him from all sides, as heavy and immense as a mountain.

For a moment, w.a.n.g Chong felt as if the entire world was crus.h.i.+ng down on him.

w.a.n.g Chong was no stranger to this feeling.

The World Constraint’s power!

w.a.n.g Chong’s breaking of An Lushan’s control over the weather and dispelling of the Power of the World’s effect seemed to have stirred the World Consciousness’s displeasure. It had directly intervened and activated the World Constraint.

Rumble!

Though those around him couldn’t see, w.a.n.g Chong could clearly see countless shadows sweeping toward him, and the surrounding pressure multiplied.

The World Constraint this time was more than one hundred times stronger than it was before.

“Warning! Danger! User is about to be attacked by the World Consciousness!” The Stone of Destiny’s warning voice rang out in w.a.n.g Chong’s ear.

This sudden World Constraint would have placed w.a.n.g Chong in grave peril in the past, even killed him, but that was then and this was now.

As a terrifying energy that surpa.s.sed the Subtle realm built up around him, w.a.n.g Chong faintly smiled in disdain and placed his hands behind him.

As the World Consciousness’s vast attack descended, w.a.n.g Chong said, “Activate the Power of the Archon of Destiny!”

Boom!

Several feet away from w.a.n.g Chong, that terrifying energy was obliterated by an even greater power.

Archon’s Body!

This was w.a.n.g Chong’s new ability.

In the war of the northwest, w.a.n.g Chong had defeated Khatabah and vanquished Arabia. This immense achievement had gained him unprecedented favor from the Stone of Destiny, and it had granted him the t.i.tle of Archon of Destiny.

At the time, the notification had said that it would take three months to unlock the new ability, but it had been far more than three months since then.

Compared to the Controller of Destiny, the greatest difference with the Archon of Destiny was the Archon’s Body.

The reduction in the expenditure of Destiny Energy and the ability to resist the World Consciousness were only a few of the abilities of the Archon’s Body, and the Archon’s Body was completely immune to the World Constraint.

“It’s useless! It doesn’t matter if you’re the World Consciousness or something else. You can only prostrate before me!”

w.a.n.g Chong’s eyes flashed with cold light.

Bang!

He stomped forward, sending a boundless energy surging through the ground and into the formation beneath the fortress, swiftly activating it.

With a great boom, the formation activated, thoroughly suppressing the volcanic energy under the ground.

Bang!

Everyone heard a rumbling come from beneath the fortress, but after a few tremors, everything calmed back down.

The Power of the World’s attacks were formless and omnipresent, and its attacks could even reach beneath the earth.

However, w.a.n.g Chong was ready for the World Consciousness after clas.h.i.+ng with it several times, and had already taken countermeasures against it while constructing the fortress.

The formation beneath the steel fortress wasn’t just for resisting the cold. It was also designed to suppress and neutralize that energy beneath the earth, defending against any attack from the World Consciousness.

Whether it was through a landslide, volcanic eruption, or an earthquake, the World Consciousness could attack at any time, and w.a.n.g Chong had to be ready.

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

An Lushan’s face turned red in anger.

He could clearly sense that w.a.n.g Chong had rendered the fortress airtight. Not even the World Consciousness could do anything about it.

Though he was enraged, An Lushan quickly calmed back down. This time, he would crush w.a.n.g Chong and the Tang army no matter what.

Using the Power of the World to control the weather was only one of his tricks, not everything he had.

“Gao Shang, begin the a.s.sault!” An Lushan ordered, his face dark. He continued to control the Power of the World, clas.h.i.+ng with w.a.n.g Chong through the weather, as he spoke to Gao Shang.

Bang!

With this order, the orderly rows of the alliance army began to rapidly s.h.i.+ft.

The front row of soldiers quickly parted, opening a path. At the same time, a great rumbling came from the rear.

w.a.n.g Chong, w.a.n.g Zhongsi, and Abusi watched as Youzhou soldiers began to march out from the rear, three men to a team, pus.h.i.+ng forward small carts.

“s.h.i.+eld carts!” w.a.n.g Zhongsi solemnly said, instantly recognizing these carts.

Steel planks stood up from these wheeled carts. It was obvious that they were simplified s.h.i.+eld carts.

In just a few short moments, tens of thousands of these s.h.i.+eld carts rolled out from the alliance army’s camp.

“Hmph, they came prepared!”

w.a.n.g Chong coldly laughed.

After numerous battles, the ballista army under Su Hanshan had achieved worldwide fame. An Lushan was clearly aware of them and had prepared these small s.h.i.+eld carts to deal with the ballistae.

“What is he planning? The ballistae are extremely powerful. Does he think that a single steel plank is really enough to stop them?”

Abusi slightly frowned, suspicion in his eyes.
